Compressor rotor blades are shown to experience periodic flow excitation forces from surrounding vanes. In some cases, the surrounding vane stages have the same counts, leading to multiple forces of the same kind that can superimpose on a specific rotor blade. This superposition can lead to both increase or decrease of the periodic excitation force, depending on the tangential phase difference, or clocking, of the acting vane stages. It has been shown that by varying the vane rows clocking can significantly affect the flow excitation levels exerted on a blade. The same is most probably applicable to the aerodynamic performance.
In this work the student will explore the possibilities to get optimum solution that minimizes the forcing and improves the efficiency of the affected compressor stages. The work will be performed with the use of the CFD solver TRACE Harmonic Balance. A major part of the work will be to develop and document an automatized way to reach that optimum solution coupling the various CFD and FEM analysis chains.
